Red Biquinho Pepper Seeds (CAPSICUM CHINENSE) SWEET teardrop

Red biquinho chile peppers are very small, tear-drop shaped pods, averaging three centimeters in length, and have a curved center that tapers into an elongated, pointed tip. The skin ripens from pale green to bright red when mature and is glossy and smooth, connected to a slender and curved, dark green stem. Underneath the skin, the medium to thick flesh is red, crisp, and aqueous, encasing a very small cavity filled with round and flat, cream-colored seeds. Red biquinho chile peppers are very crunchy and juicy with an initially tangy, citrus taste followed by a sweet, fruity, and slightly smoky flavor reminiscent of habanero peppers. The peppers also contain mild heat that fluctuates in intensity depending on the climate, soil, and environment the pod is grown in.  CULTURE:Peppers thrive in well-drained, fertile soils with a pH of 6.5. Abundant phosphorus and calcium is needed for the best results.GROWING SEEDLINGS: Sow seed in 20-row or shallow flats, 4 seeds/in., 1/4" deep, in late
